Student Engagement Objectives

Deepen a culture of service and activism on campus through programs and partnerships that develop and enhance an understanding of critical social issues,a deepened sense of civic commitment, and positive social change. For example:

NDNU Bonner Leaders Program - These student social activists are engaged to volunteer with NDNU's community partners for a minimum of 300 hours per year and, in return, are awarded up to $10000 in financial aid. Each Bonner Leader is trained on effective leadership techniques and is availed the resources to begin to question historical social injustices and to offer solutions for materializing equality wherever the opportunity may manifest. In essence, we are transforming students into informed community activists

School of the Americas Watch - Keeping vigilant watch and engaging in Non-Violent Direct Action with the aim to close the School of the Americas

Alternative Spring Break - Bringing a passionate immersion experience, with a commitment to dynamic community engagement, to spring break
